What will Smoker’s Risk Assessment cover?
- Cardiac Profile: Identify particular blood markers that allow us to predict the risk of heart disease at an early stage.
- Liver Profile: An increase in cholesterol levels can have a severe impact on liver health, resulting in fatty liver. This risk is identified in smokers via a liver profile.
- Kidney Profile: Determine nicotine levels in the blood, as blood flow to the kidneys gradually decreases as nicotine levels rise, resulting in chronic kidney disease.
- Cholesterol Level Assessment: Check for low-density lipoproteins and triglycerides (bad cholesterol), as well as high-density lipoproteins (good cholesterol).
- Deficiency Iron and Vitamin D levels should be checked.
- CEA (Carcino Embryonic Antigen): CEA is a protein found throughout the body that is a key sign of inflammation and malignant/abnormal cell development. CEA levels can be used to determine inflammatory status and can also aid in the early diagnosis of cancer in a few cases.
- Fluorescent Microscopy: Cigarette smoking causes aberrant cell growth in the deeper layers of the lung tissues, as well as making the lung more susceptible to infections, which can be detected with this test.
- FBS and HBA1c Diabetes Profile: A diabetic profile evaluates the risk of developing insulin resistance (Type 2 Diabetes) due to smoking.
- Thyroid Profile: Smoking affects thyroid function by lowering thyroid hormone levels and interfering with thyroid hormone production.
